This episode of Straight White American Jesus features a conversation with Matt Taylor about the influence of Lance Wallnau, the propagator of the Seven Mountains mandate, and his connection to the Trump campaign. The discussion centers around Taylor’s engagement with Wallnau amidst allegations of him being a ‘Lance Stalker’. Wallnau’s manipulation of rhetoric and his role in evangelical political circles are scrutinized. The episode then shifts focus to J.D. Vance’s appearance at Wallnau’s Courage Tour, sponsored by Turning Point USA, as a campaign strategy. The political and theological dynamics at play are analyzed, particularly Vance’s disconnect with the charismatic audience, influenced by his Catholic background. We conclude with an exploration of the evolving landscape of Christian political engagement in the U.S.
